This is not the first time Musk has complained about Singapore. Last year, he tweeted that he wants Tesla in Singapore but the government was "not supportive" of electric vehicles. Responding to another tweet, Musk said: "Singapore has enough area to switch to solar/battery and be energy-independent."
